Baluchitherium, mastodon, prehistoric mammals, Smilodon, Turok, Turok Son of Stone, Wooly Mammoth

No collection of pure dinosaur comics is complete without the mother of all dinosaur comics, Young Earth! Young Earth appeared in the golden age comic, Turok Son of Stone. Published first under the Dell imprint and then by Gold Key, Turok sees the light of day again in an archival reprint series by Dark Horse. We will share with you the complete original educational series of dinosaurs, prehistoric mammals, and other animals of prehistoric earth. Enjoy!

Today’s gallery features all of the black and white prehistoric mammal pieces from the inside covers of Turok Son of Stone, Issues #1-69: Smilodon, Mastodon, Baluchitherium, Wooly Mammoth, and the ancestor of the horse. Though not labeled as part of the Young Earth full color stories, these make excellent companion pieces for prehistoric mammal enthusiasts. Enjoy and mutate!

USPS unleashed this set of dinosaur stamps in 1984, and the prehistoric mammal stamps in 1994. We haven’t checked post card postage rates recently, but you could probably mail one of our Mark Schultz Dinosaur Postcards with them today.

Too bad the artists are not credited on the stamps. Nice work here!
